driftwood/manzanita branches

[Kelvin0727]

Hi, I was just wondering where do you guys buy your driftwood and manzanita branches? I'm planning to setup a planted discus tank and looking for driftwood to setup but I haven't found a good online place.

Thanks,

I haven't bought any in years, as I bought a ton of it when I had a dozen tanks running. manzanita.com

I order from: http://www.manzanita-driftwood.com/Manzanita.html

Shipping was a little on the high side I thought, but otherwise got some nice pieces.

I just bought half a dozen fantastic pieces from manzanita.com, they have great stuff unless you're looking for something really branchy which is what some people seem to like. Tom Barr sells manzanita as well, I believe mostly through posts on his forum, the Barr Report instead of from a dedicated website. So you'd potentially need to search through that to find any current listings.

Wish we had suppliers in Canada. Crossing the border with any type of plant or wood product without treatment documents can or will be confiscated by customs. Some maybe be lucky but I see it as risky and a pricey lost.
Any experiences from members north of the USA safely bringing in Manzanita Wood ?

Thanks Dan...have enquired at most of the links in Canada including the two you listed. Hard to come across larger full stumps or full branches with many shoots.
